“I used to be the largest dairy consumer on the planet. I used to eat so much dairy and meat. The more that I looked into the dairy industry, the more that I saw that it was the singular, most inhumane industry on the planet, that we've all been lied to, including myself, for years. I always believed that the picture on the milk carton, the cow standing next to her calf in the green field with the red barn in the back was true. It’s certainly the complete opposite.” – Richard (Kudo) Couto Richard (Kudo) Couto is the founder of Animal Recovery Mission (ARM), an organization solely dedicated to investigating extreme animal cruelty cases. ARM has led high-risk undercover operations that have resulted in the shutdown of illegal slaughterhouses, animal fighting rings, and horse meat trafficking networks. Recently, they released a damning investigation into two industrial dairy farms outside of Phoenix, Arizona supplying milk to Coca-Cola’s Fairlife brand. What they uncovered was systemic animal abuse, environmental violations, and a devastating betrayal of consumer trust. While Fairlife markets its products as being sourced "humanely," ARM’s footage tells a very different story—one of suffering, abuse, and corporate complicity. Despite the evidence, this story has been largely ignored by mainstream media—likely due to Coca-Cola’s massive influence and advertising dollars.…

Today's episode takes us to Osaka, Japan, 1994 where a routine bank robbery turned hostage situation spirals into tragedy when a single word - just one word - gets lost between languages. What should have been a peaceful resolution became a cautionary tale about the deadly consequences of miscommunication. Get ready for "The Osaka Incident" - where cultural nuance and linguistic precision meant the difference between life and death. Osaka in 1994 was a city of contrasts - gleaming skyscrapers piercing the sky while narrow streets below buzzed with the energy of Japan's economic powerhouse. It was just another busy Thursday at the Sumitomo Bank branch in the Tennoji district, until Kenji Yamamoto walked through the doors at 3:42 PM. https://locallinguists.com Disclaimer: This series of podcast episodes is purely a work of fiction.

Welcome to Criminal Translations: Crimes Lost (and Found) in Translation, a new series within Localize This! I'm your host, Harry Windsor, and over the next few episodes, we'll dive deep into cases where a single mistranslated word, a cultural misconception, or a linguistic error changed the course of justice forever. In today's criminal justice system, where split-second decisions can determine someone's fate, the role of accurate translation isn't just important – it's crucial. These aren't just stories about crimes; they're cautionary tales about what happens when justice gets lost between languages. Today, we begin with a chilling case that haunted the courts for over a decade: The Misheard Confession. A story where a simple linguistic nuance meant the difference between freedom and imprisonment. On a cold November morning in 2003, in the quiet suburbs of Rochester, New York, Maria Santiago was found dead in her corner grocery store. The 64-year-old grandmother had been brutally attacked during what appeared to be a robbery gone wrong. The tight-knit Hispanic community was shaken to its core. Maria wasn't just a shop owner – she was a neighborhood matriarch who helped recent immigrants find their footing in their new American home. *Disclaimer: Please note that all stories presented are works of fiction .
